-One drawback of the blinding rate of advancement in computer science is that, since everyone relies on computers now, we are constantly making large chunks of our collective skillsets become obsolete and be in constant need of replacement. In the professions, for example, this often means there is a divide between young people with advanced computer skills (they haven't been around long enough to fall behind yet) but not enough experience to apply them properly, and older people with rich experience but inadequate computer skills (and often managerial responsibilities that keep them from effectively passing on knowledge to the next generation. -
-The chaos of a constantly-changing environment undermines the theoretically possible efficiencies of that environment. -

Super Computers - quantum computers is not finished yet but it is already facing a pile of jobs to do basing on the question Hank Green uttered. Big Science is relying on computers and to create super computers makers relies both on Science and Technology.

4: 36, connecting the U. S. government's investment in information exchange to 4chan (which used to idolize Ron Paul to large degree) isn't necessarily ironic. The spirit of 1776 lives on in the internet and innovative nerds.

Not only do I love the phrase itself, I love how Hank's eyes light up and how he says in a different, dramatic way every time.
The whispered -I don't know- was the best!

Hypothesis-free science is terrifying. If you have enough data and look for enough connections, you -will- find connections, purely by chance.
